Re: A New L@@K
Hi Ralph,
I just went with the same size as what came off. There are P205 - 75's.

Have a great week Sir,...

Re: The Merc In Autumn
Ralph,
Thanks for another great video. I love that old barn. It's always neat to see the craftsmanship from the old days. Beautiful country. Is that a Go Pro camera you are using?
